LOL... very clever.

I don't understand why your say I am scared to cross the border. I lived in Mexico for a time and went to school at the University of the America's at Toluca. I have been through Central America and Mexico. Of course, I did it legally with a passport.

America seems to be the only country that allows illegal immigration besides the EU. What's your point?

"Conservatives don’t completely oppose immigration. They, like Trump, just wonder why we have to accept immigrants from s*hole countries like those in Africa, instead of white some and delight some nations like Norway?"

This makes NO sense. But, I could refresh all the ideas for NOT allowing ILLEGAL immigration if you like. Nobody opposes LEGAL immigration. But our immigration laws, policies, and procedures should be updated and revised.

Do you understand the difference between legal and illegal immigration?

We have dscussed ths issue in the past several times, and I believe we have come to a more or less complete consensus about what should be done. A clear date for all current illegal immigrants to report themselves. Then, assess ALL of them (also the recent ones because it is difficult and unfair to put limits) with respect to criminality. ALL who pass should get a permanent right to stay PLUS the option of citizenship within 3-5 years (obviously passing reasonable tests).

All others should be deported with immediate effect.

This is not enough! Much needs to be done to prevent further illegal immigration, and this is the most difficult task. Walls will not work! Harsh deportation for all those wo have not tried to enter legally and who are not justifiably refugees might also help.

Do we agree?

If we do, you should start pressuring your Congress and Senate favourites to work on this plan, and it should be done reps and dems TOGETHER!!

YES... we have agreed an several things about immigration. I agree with your statements above; however, illegal immigration must be stopped first, or at least simultaneously with immigration reform.

To expand on your comments, we must first reduce the incentive for illegal immigration. I have discussed those ideas before. If we eliminated any incentive to make that dangerous, expensive trip here illegally we might not need a wall.

I have also talked about immigration reform and what should be dome there. There is much there to be done.

<To expand on your comments, we must first reduce the incentive for illegal immigration. >

Yes, that would of course be optimal, but I am afraid it is impossible considering the vast opposrtunities an immigrant from these countries will have in USA. Of course, if there were strict laws (AND practise) of immediate deportation of any illegal person it would help, and that was precisely what I proposed. Potential immigrants should be taught - if not otherwise, then the hard way - that they should apply for immigrant status in a legal fasjion. HOWEVER, this also requires changes and making such application procedures easier and more accessible! They should of course be in the country of origin, not in USA!

Ok, so you admit the US border was not open back then, but you insist it is open now. Yet you won’t accept the challenge—cross the border without ID. THAT is what an open border is, not one like North Korea’s where you can keep your children if you sneak across without stepping on a land mine or catching the eye of a trigger happy guard.

Incentives
Softaire wants to eliminate the incentives for illegal immigrants, like free college tuition, free housing, high paying jobs, universal health care benefits the envy of our veterans, free food, and new Italian sports cars and free gas.

That, of course, is the biggest stumbling block to immigration reform.

Bradley Fighting Vehicles
We have a thousand of these. The are lightly armored and can move pretty fast. The HEAT (high explosive, anti tank) missiles can be replaced with standard missiles as the truck and busses ferrying migrants have no armor. The guns work fine against unarmed women and children. We have a thousand of these, so deploying one every four miles leaves us some to spare, whereas the stench of rotting bodies may discourage illegal crossing. Bonus—free fertilizer. All the clothing can be donated to the Goodwill. Just a quick rinse to get out the blood stains. I’ve seen women tear their jeans on purpose—these clothes will come decorated with neat little holes highlighting the accuracy of border patrol to find vital organs.

I get the feeling this is the real solution conservatives itch to implement.

You see why we can’t get anywhere. What Stal proposes is reasonable and easily executable. It should just be done. It doesn’t need endless quid pro quos.

To be fair Softaire is just pushing the right wing dogma but when you look at those behind that dogma you see their real intent and anti-immigrant bias. Short of a police state and North Korea like border people will try and cross, and the “incentives” are the same as our ancestors—escaping tyranny, persecution, crime, poverty etc. and wanting a better life for children, despite exploitation and dangers in the way. It’s not about living off crime, welfare and food stamps for the rest or their lives. Our immigration system is a mess so the “legal” process isn’t working. That why it’s ridiculous to demand we have “secure” borders to their unrealistic standards before fixing the system or legalizing those settled here while millions wait for decades—that is just hostage taking and a pretext. Sanctuary cities to protect innocent victims of this nonsense are only necessary because conservatives take hostages. Legalize those here and fix immigration first which is easy while we modernize border security because that isn’t simple. Otherwise we know they are not really serious and just want little to no immigration from the “wrong” places.

Ok... I give. I'll delete my previous post and now will say what I think about this post by LS:

I find the post by LS to be juvenile, embarrassing, and insulting. As a Marine Corp infantry grunt who fought for the USA in Vietnam and saw comrades die or be horribly wounded, he is one who might get a grenade rolled under his cot some night or shot by the "enemy" out in the bush for those comments.

I find the implication of what he says to be unpatriotic, un-American, and unfounded. They are so vile and disgusting to any person who loves this country and doesn't want to see it destroyed by liberal BS, that it might cause more than a "dispute"... especially coming from somebody who has never sworn an oath to defend the Constitution.

J6 heroes and border security
youtu.be
http:///youtu.be/-z1KGCPMrJo
January 6 today is the uprising of US citizens against injustice and double standards of law. Remember the unruly BLM protesters rampaged through major cities in 2020. They burned, looted, vandalized and killed many innocent people including police officers. Billions of dollars were lost. 5 people died at the Capitol Hill riot. Democrat fake news media claimed that a police officer died from head injury, but the autopsy result showed otherwise. He died of a stroke. Ashley Babbitt, an air force veteran without any criminal history was shot death point blank. The cop who shot her was exonerated of any wrongdoing and was awarded a medal of honor.

A Democrat who will become the minority leader claimed 5 cops died defending the Capitol Hill. It is a complete lie. A liar is unworthy to become a leader of the Democrat party IMHO. Babbitt's helpless mother tried to protest the injustice. She was arrested and taken away. Joe Biden awarded many cops with medals of honor.

Joe Biden will visit southern US border on this coming Sunday to check border security. Many Americans are suffering from invasion of illegals. Watch out GK folks on how he can manage the border security similar to management of security of congress. Don't be surprised if he failed to do so by incompetent president. Please watch the above youtube video, so that you will know what I am talking about.

“ Ashley Babbitt, an air force veteran without any criminal history was shot death point blank. “

Well she was engaged in actual dangerous violent criminal actions at the time, actually crawling through a window in her drive to attack lawmakers and halt the peaceful transfer of power.

But it’s unsurprising you neglected to mention that small detail. Selective amnesia or purposeful misinformation?

29 people died in capturing Mexican drug kingpin.

The Mexican government on Friday revealed that 10 soldiers and 19 criminal suspects had been killed in the raid to capture the son of jailed cartel boss Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman.

Washington says 32-year-old Ovidio Guzman, nicknamed "El Raton" (The Mouse), has helped run the family's criminal operation since Mexico extradited his father to the United States in 2017.
------------------
My comment:
Please watch the above youtube video first. While we are trying to secure Ukraine's border from Putin's Russian invasion, Biden's administration has neglected to secure our southern border for two years. US will be spending a total of $ 110 billion for UKr with arms, ammo and technical support. Is it too little or too late? This is the real concern of each and every law abiding, tax paying US citizen.

Mexican drug cartels control the lucrative southern border. They are involved in drug trafficking, human smuggling and all kinds of criminal activities if you try to fight them. They can torture and kill the victims indiscriminately. Over 100,000 Americans died from drug overdose, mostly from fentanyl. Don't get me wrong. I am not a racist for saying unlimited and illegal immigration. We can't afford to admit and look after millions of migrants who come from 150 countries around the world. Do something Biden rather than nothing.

Ace makes a good point. Liars are only welcome and cherished and honored by the GOP. Look at master liar Groper. Or George Santos. Lies like a rug, is welcomed into the Republican Party with wide open arms. Jew-ish. LOL. Or any other Republican—Jewish Space Laser and Gespacho Police Peach Tree Dish rocket surgeon Marjorie Taylor. Whee!

Ashley was not shot at point blank range. No power burns on her wound. Is Ace vying for a GOP leadership position?
dmaestro
06-Jan-23, 23:09

Ace is an ignorant right wing extremist pushing fake history and I see no reason to believe his nonsense.

Insurrection has consequence.

If I had been a policeman there given her threat I would feel no guilt whatsoever shooting her as she criminally broke in. It’s too bad she died I believing lies but she made her choice. Live by the sword die by the sword.

And why do the cartels even exist? Because conservatives who lie when they claim they stand for liberty decided to repeat the prohibition mistake which built organized crime and declare a war on drugs as a weapon based on politics not science.

Today, I turn 20. I'm celebrating not just my birthday, but the fact that I get to have a 20th birthday. If it weren't for our rights to self-defense, I wouldn't be here on my birthday. This is why I will not stop talking about how important the 2nd Amendment is, it saves lives!

My comment:
Jesus said, "If somebody slap you on one side of the cheek, give other side of your cheek to slap more." Even when Jesus was dying on the cross, he forgave the crucifiers by saying, "They don't know what they are doing". Omnipotent God, AKA Jesus could do like that because he has a resurrection power sooner or later. In other words, He is like a superman. Jesus died on the cross, but he did not die in vain. After his crucifixion, Christianity, that is followers of Jesus Christ spread like wildfire on planet earth. On the third day he was resurrected and rose again. Jesus is a good role model to follow but we don't know when we will be resurrected after our demise.

Having said that we have the rights to defend ourselves. Rittenhouse was defending his area from unruly BLM protesters supported by Democrats. Unlike Jesus, we only died once IMHO. Without his gun support, we won't see him today. He should become our new role model as a champion of defense. The end justifies the means.

Good news for USA! HS McCarthy will seal and secure US border.
After 15 attempts of voting, Kevin McCarthy won the House Speaker's position. GOPs has many top priority agendas for Americans and one of them is border security. May God bless America and pray for House Speaker's success.

Stal, don't you realize that a lot of criminals, drugs and terrorists are flooding our nation thru open border. Fentanyl poisoning can kill millions of Americans in the long run. Terrorists can bring parts of a nuclear bomb and reassemble it after they get into US. Then, they can blow the atomic bomb in a big city like NYC or Wash. D.C. Our nation will be in great disaster. The crime rate is all time sky high under Democrat led Biden administration. Police and border guards are underfunded and scared to perform their duty. There are many rapes, murders, lootings etc. If so, we have no choice but to arm ourselves similar to Rittenhouse.

Response to Zorro:
I will apologize if you get upset with my answer. Z said:

"If somebody slap you on one side of the cheek, give other side of your cheek to slap more." Even when Jesus was dying on the cross, he forgave the crucifiers.”

“Having said that we have the rights to defend ourselves.”

These are mutually contradictory statements.

These are not mutually contradictory statements, IMHO. It is a fact. Please read my previous message again. I clearly stated that You, me and others are not Jesus. Please watch this youtube video. Z knows Krav Maga but I am not sure he is an expert on this martial art.
